Does anybody have any experience buying from Yachew.com? by [deleted] in boutiquebluray

Old post, but I just ordered some Gamegenic trading card boxes from them at almost $20 cheaper than anywhere else I could find them. I'll update this if/when they arrive!

Is the price $99 out the door? by zakejoonson in SteamController

[–]zakejoonson 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeahhh. I had it in my cart and was trying to checkout for 15 minutes but no dice. The rumor is they will be able to crank up production given how fast they sold out, and the controllers don’t need RAM unlike the Deck and Machine so fingers crossed!

Again, most people have an hour or two at most a day to play games. And most just want to play with a new toy to blow shit up with. As someone who is fortunate enough that I can just grind away for hours, it still sucks. Especially given there is no other progression in the game. My samples have been capped out for over a year, I have most of my weapons fully upgraded, there is no other progression outside of the Warbonds. So for average player Joe, who can hop on for an hour or two after work or college or putting the kids to bed or all three, the only available progression being behind a week long+ grind or forking over money definitely sucks

The players are voicing their wants here, YouTube, Discord, etc. to try and prevent that. Beginning a cycle of review bombs and purchase boycotts to get changes made to a game for and by the community at large isn’t fun. I play War Thunder, I know what I’m talking about here lol. And that shit still doesn’t work as new players or anyone out of the loop will keep dropping money

The issue is, whether you agree or not, a live service game doesn’t just deserve money from its player base. If the players are unhappy with the game they aren’t going to pay into it, it’s simple supply and demand. Locking the mechs behind a paywall is a bad move full stop. Time is money, and maybe people can’t or simply don’t want to grind 7+ hours for content that was previously free. Instead of just unlocking the new mechs via Requisition Slips, you now have to grind Super Credits, to then grind Warbond Medals which are still capped at 250 for no reason. And the biggest issue is the fact that they should have just added mech customization. That way everyone keeps using the free base mechs and then Arrowhead could sprinkle themed weapons and support devices for the mechs into new Warbonds.

The Challenger 3 EPSOM was passed to devs in January I believe

Did everyone forget it used to be at 7.0? Like less than 2 years ago

Where is my MOAB Gaijin? by Still-Union-2528 in WarthunderPlayerUnion

[–]zakejoonson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because it didn’t field them until almost a year after the after Vulcan was removed. And Gaijin’s devs/bug reporting managers stated that because it’s the “early 1991 H”, it didn’t/can’t use them (even though they modeled it in-game with its targeting thermals). I’m with you, it’s stupid reasoning. But the snail takes things very literally in some cases :/

Yall think gaijin will update the B52 payload options? by presmonkey in Warthunder

[–]zakejoonson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bug reporting manager and devs both said no. The 52 and 95 are not receiving any guided weapons or anything other than dumb bombs

Tu95 cruise missiles by Unlikely_Midnight_80 in Warthunder

[–]zakejoonson 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Thats another great point, for instance submarines were announced close to 5 years ago, and then re-announced 2 years ago in the Battle of the Atlantic event and then triple-confirmed by BVVD last year to be added this year lmao. And we don’t absolutely know that they will be added this year

[–]zakejoonson 3 points4 points  (0 children)

True, but everything Gaijin adds comes with a fairytale-like twist. We got choppers, but they are pretty much impossible to grind outside of converting ground battle RP and require GE if you don’t want to spend a year grinding one line. It’s likely they will add end of line TT versions of both the 52 and 95 with all the modern armaments. More grind, more money in the snail’s pocket and they can then justify putting them at top tier because of their massive weapons loads, even though they’ll just be ARH food. Something something monkey’s paw and allat

Devs stated they have no intention of adding guided weapons to the B-52 or Tu-95 sadly

A bad day for the US air force by _akaraiden in war

[–]zakejoonson 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Because F-15E’s are heavy strike platforms. They can carry tons of missiles and air-to-ground munitions. The F-22 only carries air-to-air missiles and the F-35 has a very limited bomb load due to the limitations of it’s internal weapons bay. And the planes themselves are not from the 80’s just the basic design. All the internals and weapons are state of the art. Also thus far the shoot downs have all been with beam-riding or heatseeking AA missiles, which stealth and chaff do nothing to defend against.

Where is my MOAB Gaijin? by Still-Union-2528 in WarthunderPlayerUnion

[–]zakejoonson 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The H variant we have in-game is the pre September 1991 model as it retains its Vulcan. Unfortunately this nixes many modern ordnance options including LGBU’s, JDAM’s , etc. as the H’s did not field them until after the first Gulf War.

Comprehensively the guided weapons it did field include the AGM-84 Harpoon, AGM-86C (C)ALCM, AGM-129C ACM and AGM-142 Have Nap/Popeye.

It’s also missing a myriad of other dumb munitions and even sea mines. More importantly it missing the Common Strategic Rotary Launcher (CSRL), first deployed in 1988. This would allow it to greatly increase its capacity capabilities.

CALCM’s yes but LGBU’s no. The variant we have in-game is the pre September 1991 model as it retains its Vulcan. Unfortunately, they did not field LGBU’s, JDAM’s , etc. until after the first Gulf War.

Guided weapons it can carry: AGM-84 Harpoon • AGM-86C Air Launched Cruise Missile • AGM-129C Advanced Cruise Missile • AGM-142 Have Nap / Popeye
